- Presentation:
Virtual Execution Platform (VEP) is a Contrail service that sits just above IaaS layer at the service provider end of the Contrail cloud federation. The VEP provides a uniform interface for managing the whole lifecycle of elastic applications on the cloud and hides the details of the IaaS layer to the user. VEP applications are described in OVF (Open Virtualization Format) standard format. Resource usage is controlled by CEE (Constrained Execution Environment) rules which can be derived from SLAs (Service Level Agreement). The VEP integrates a monitoring system where the major events about the application, mainly resource usage, are made available to the user.
The VEP service provides a RESTful interface and can be exploited directly by users on top of the provider IaaS. OpenNebula and OCCI-based IaaS interfaces are currently supported.
